President Donald Trump just issued an executive order eliminating the use of “disparate impact” analysis in the use of racial and gender-oriented hiring and benefits.  In so doing, he has moved us from an ethos of numerical equity to moral equality.

 As Heather Mac Donald put it: Disparate Impact “has been used to invalidate literacy and numeracy standards for police officers and firemen, cognitive skills and basic knowledge tests for teachers, the use of SATs in college admissions, the use of grades for medical licensing exams….It has been used to eliminate prosecution for a large range of crimes…. among other things.

 Disparate impact has been used to achieve results, give benefits, and prove racisim where no discriminatory intent has been alleged.  Trump’s order restores true civil rights, and is a refreshing fix to the pitting of Americans against one another.  In sum, Donald Trump ended the presumption that we are an implicitly biased or racist country with this order, and this will quell and heal increasing racial and gender-based resentments.
